"We arrived to find our key and assigned POD ready. The experience was as described in the listing. These units have electricity and space heaters were provided. The walk from the parking location to the pod was very reasonable. If I were looking for a possible improvement, with breakfast not being a reasonable option, maybe include a bottle of Wine/Champagne with the pod. Definitely would recommend for couple and single travelers!!!"
